If the regular handful of events and openings was not enough, then you will be excited to add the SAIC MFA showÂ (of which I was involved as a guess curator)Â and then round out your night with a little bit of Ox-BowÂ benefiting. Many of the Bad at Sports family have participated in Ox-Bow and I am very fortunateÂ to be teaching there this summer. If you have to pick one or the other here is a hint: the MFA show will be there Saturday, the opportunity to be in Bill Padnos’s home and collection will not be.

After more than a decade of inviting you to the Chicago Winter Benefit, we are taking a break in 2013 to introduce:Â The Ox-Bow Drive Series. An amazing roster of Ox-Bow friends will open their homes to host small events in order to raise funds for Ox-Bow.

You are invited to the 2nd party in our series at the Ukrainian Village home of Bill Padnos, former Ox-Bow Managing Director, a long-time supporter and, collector of Ox-Bow art.Â
